My electronics and radio notebook from 1963-1965 year. Crystal radio, transistor radio, tube radio

That variometer crystal set bought back memories (I'm 76).

dad had the same. And one of notebooks was made from graph paper with very small 1 mm checks. Childhoods memories😊

Wonderful, Imre - thanks for sharing! This brings back memories; the notebook from my early teens looked much the same. To anybody watching, who also chronicled their hobby with a journal: please don't be tempted to discard it - find somebody to pass it on to, even if it may be years before they recognise its value. Not everything is recorded and findable, even on the Internet, and ideas don't become obsolete just because the technology they were first implemented with is replaced. After a 40-year electronics career I refer more, not less, to original papers and articles, many from a century ago. Engineering's an applied science, so it exists in a historical context. We understand it better when we get the chance to see where modern technology fits on the timeline and how it arrived there.

Thanks for sharing this. Your notebooks are a delight to the eyes of this fellow radio lover. I still sketch out schematics and keep notebooks of my radio projects, but I don't share your fine eye and hand. The SW station idents from the Cold War era were the perfect audio too. It brought back memories of a wonderful time for radio hobbyists long gone. 73 de AB1DQ / James in CT USA.

Thank you so much for sharing, I can't thank you enough.

lovely, it brought back so many memories of my childhood and my hand-drawn electronic circuits, all gone now. Your drawings were so beautiful to look at as well. Also the radio station calls signs brought back so many memories too.

So beautifully drawn and documented. You covered it all from crystal radios to transistor and tubes. Thanks for sharing this!

I have a similar notebook from when I was starting out in Electronics, in the early 70s. It has lots of simple radio and test equipment circuits that I copied out of book in my school library and different hobby magazines.

Как приятно снова услышать старые позывные стран мира . Эти позывные знакомы мне с далёкого детства . Спасибо Вам огромное . С наступающим Новым годом ! Желаю мира , здоровья и процветания . 73 !

Thanks for posting.... I really enjoyed hearing (again) the unique tuning signals and announcements at the start of short wave broadcasts. I spent a few thousand hours of short wave listening from age 11 to my middle 20s.

Merci pour le partage des documents de votre ancien cahier et des ritournelles des anciennes stations radio onde courtes. Thank's for sharing the documents of your old notebook and the jingles of old short waves radio stations - (broadcasts). Happy New Year 2024 and 73' from FRANCE.

Отдельная благодарность за позывные радиостанций которые я слушал в эти годы по детекторному радиоприёмнику.

very neat book and drawings, mine seams relicts of the burned Alexandria library.

this is fun to watch. I was a kid back in those days. most of my home brew stuff was tube type. I still have my wards airline receiver.

Köszönöm a hozzászólást, nagyon klassz uram! Thanks for posting, very cool sir!
